I found this vid scrolling through your channel and love your tutorial on this classic. I found that it was easier for me to hammer onto the 3rd fret and flick off as you suggested, but also flick off the second which allows me to hear the open g string instead of plucking it. Keep it up Andy, it all great stuff👍
I’ve had a flickin’ good time learning this flicking song! And thanks for the proper accreditation. Bowie wrote and recorded it and the Nirvana covered it. Even here on youtube people call it a Nirvana song; not to knock their cover which is wonderful. If you are game, how about Star Man? Not that I’m an old Bowie fan or anything…
My personal favourite was Lulus in 1974 , with Mick Ronson on guitar , Bowie backing vocals and a great sleazy sax riff played by er I forgot ! Apparently Bowie encouraged Lulu to smoke 40 cigarettes a day to take the edge off her voice before recording the track ! The super slick and easy Ronson riff actually circles within the whole piece and can be laid down as a backing loop .
Lovely video Andy. I have been playing quite a bit of Bowie recently on a 12 string which had been his early instrument of choice. As an experiment I thought I would play heroes on a 12 string and I was surprised how well it worked. By the way I saw someone comment about you should do Ziggy stardust on Electric. I would suggest doing it on the channel with your friend, one on 12 string and one on electric together. Keep up the excellent videos.
@Andy Guitar. Hi Andy from Michigan, US. Hey, I have 6 acoustics guitars & I just ordered all #9-43 Ernie Ball & Vintage Gibson Reissue #10 strings to change them all out. My 84 12 string Epiphone sounds great with these lighter strings on it. I like the lighter strings, plus it's a bit easier to order.... Great song & lesson...
You are Awwwwwwwwwesome,, can you teach a variety of acoustic tune such as Rolling Stones, Bad Co. Poison, Warrant, Nirvana- (All Apologies & Pennyroyal Tea). I Love the way you put the lyrics to the music.. Thanks Again!!
Andy excellent tutorial as usual I bought your beginner and intermediate courses extremely helpful can you play "Hunger Strike" by Temple of the Dog" much appreciated
Do "All apologies" by Nirvana! It's the song that finally turned me onto Nirvana after years of "being too good for them". I enjoyed the bit on your 5-riff-Video, but do a full version! :)
I started this 'coz you put A Dm C and F in the thumbnail and all of a sudden you intoduces a barre chord (bmin flat) in the middle and now I am stuck. Would be great if there was some easy alternative chord for b flat minor ...
I find it easier to do the start the way Marty Schwartz does it, second fret on the g string but slide it down the the third fret and back instead of hammer on and then an open g
Andy -- I don't usually subscribe as to not litter my inbox. Yours is well deserved though. Nvm that this song is driving me insane, and your coverage of the chorus could be better. But that's fine, it's just me. I just can't figure out the progression. All cheers though for a job well done.
First part, easy, the rest, Daunting! especially the chorus... you're one of the easier teachers to follow, but trying to learn chords is soooooo hard, especially having broken 3 fingers on my left hand many years ago, the middle one never being reset correctly & is a bit twisted. Is there an easy way to learn chords? most teachers on you tube ignore the fact Beginners don't have any way of remembering them (can't learn without a way to remember) ie, I failed Math at school, but got 100% on Engineering trade exams because it was only then that Algebra made any connection to reality!
I'm learning this (it pretty easy) and I have to comment yet again: Your ring finger flummoxes (great word) me. It bends unnaturally, I say. Anyone? Anyone else?
Thanks dude. Yep, HD videos really show up rusty strings and cold uk nights really make well used strings rust so much quicker. Will change em all this weekend :)
Why do you guys (different videos) have a problem with not tuning your guitar a half step down? Your giving a guitar lesson and you can't tune your guitar properly. You obviously have enough axes. How do you guys miss this?
I would personally love to see "Where did you sleep last night" from the same performance by Nirvana!
I can play this but I want to request it just because it's Andy teaching it :)
Can you please do a tutorial for the acoustic version of "Fix Me" by 10 Years?

Hi Andy, man your a great guy.
You taught me everything...
I also sweat my hand alot like you. Love from Nepal.
Thanks Andy , you did help me play this song . 🎸🤗
Thanks for doing it in standard tuning, although playing it in Eb with standard tuning IMHO wouldn't be that hard.
Thanks Andy 🎸 Great job... Keep them coming 🙏😀
Great lesson, looking to learn this one and your explanation was very understandable
Hi Andy

Great lesson. It's worth pointing out though that the Nirvana version is playing C# instead of the Bbm, in standard tuning, that is.
Any chance of ziggy stardust? (electric)

Whenevr I do the string out the sound stops soon as I put my 2nd finger down. What am I doing wrong?
I would love a full lesson on all apologies
